>>gardening, cooking and pet shows all day long.

If the Fairness Doctrine comes back, that could be what we hear! The
repeal of that
helped Rush on his way to success, and talk radio exploded--usually in the
conservative direction. (Nobody says liberal talk shows can't be on
the air but they need to be good enough to succeed...in the marketplace).

 If the FD comes back, talk stations won't want to be
running anything "controversial" for fear that they'll have to "give
the other side"
(which also means Air America would have to have conservative hosts, folks!)
and that could hurt them in the ratings. (Liberals always have other
forms of media
to fall back on or they could do their own "entertaining" shows...)
